Cool story.

Glad you enjoyed it, plucko.

I don't get it, are you denying what I said or you're just out of ammo?

BlackNRed · 11-20-2012, 10:49 PM

Yeah that's nice, doesn't change the fact that he's a bum now.

**Jace** · 11-21-2012, 12:36 AM

Classy.

The Heat currently have 0, zero, nada championships without Udonis Haslem. Replace him with another non-superstar power forward and it doesn't happen. Whether it was tag teaming Dirk with James Posey back in 2006 or turning the tide when the Pacers had the Heat down for the count this past season, he has been a key player.

Such a huge piece of Heat history. The guy has run about 8,932 screen rolls with Dwyane Wade and has seen all the battles. Double doubles in big games, guarding all-star post players in clutch time, hitting big shots, and responding to hard fouls. He has taken less money to stay with the Heat.

Has he seen better days? Yes, but he is still a big piece of this team. He is the only player on this team who gets consistent minutes and is asked to be a grinder. Bosh may start at center, but when the going gets tough it is Haslem who is run out there to defend and bang down low. The day is an undersized power forward and is asked to be the designated grinder on the best team in the league when he is often the third biggest player on the court (Bosh and James). Of course it won't be pretty when he is out there. You'll see Pat Riley retire and Spo will be fired before you see Haslem be forced off this team.

If Haslem gets hurts before the playoffs start, we won't win it this season. Just throwing it out there. You can whine all day, but if we win it will be because he is a big piece of this team.

I was going with smithians theme of just being a sarcastic prick towards people that disagree.

The initial post just addressed his draft position, not size.

Heres another cool story- only 4 teams have an all time leading rebounder with less.

**Jace** · 11-22-2012, 03:29 PM

You keep bringing irrelevant facts. The Heat are one of the younger franchises in the league. Should we be surprised by this? Was that really worth looking up? And I understand what your post addressed, just pointing out UD's feat is more impressive because of his size.

Lol, you just made the same point I did in my first post.

Thanks for agreeing.

Way to pat yourself on the back, but I never refuted that point.

Are you missing an intelligentsia meeting to post this drivel?

**Jamel Irief** · 12-10-2012, 01:18 PM

Did you know Ray Felton is the only player to lead a franchise in assists while only playing there less than 6 seasons?

Did you know that the Laker's are the only team to sport 5 All-star's and have a losing record?

**Jace** · 12-10-2012, 02:41 PM

What is happening right now? Did this guy just compare the Heat to the Bobcats?
